[G#m] When she be [D#m] the death of me
When she, she scream
When she got me down six feet underground
Caught up in a dream
When she got me down
We as a band always want to [G#] release something that we're super proud of
and not just put albums out for the sake of touring [F#] or to make money
even though that would be nice.
[C] But we wanted to make sure that the album was [D#m] done
and it was bulletproof from front to back
and we're proud of it, the whole thing.
[G] Rome wasn't built in a day.
Yeah, I like that.
[Dm]
[F] [E] We are definitely a [Dm] dysfunctional family
but I think the late and great Freddie Mercury says that
he [G] believes that some of the best music the band ever made
is when the other birds [Am] are breaking up
[G] because there's just such a push and [C#] pull
and it [G] gets emotional
and [F] I think [N] this album probably is a good representation of that.
Gary coined it right.
No matter what we do, whether it's me going to play with Rihanna
or Pat doing his Eagles thing and his Solar [D] Records
Fig's got his projects, Gary's got his
this is the mothership.
[Em] We can never escape it because it's [Bm] responsible for us doing all the other [A#] things.
It was the catalyst, it was the [D] foundation.
And like you said, we've been together for so long
it just feels like home when we get back together again.
We can always do other things
but Ben, like you said, it's the feeling of coming back to the mothership.
And like home, brothers fight.
[E] That's the beauty of it.
And we have the rarest planet.
[Am] [E] We were leaning into some heavier stuff as you hear
especially the first opening tracks
and in the studio we were thinking, [N] yeah, this sounds like a
you know, 900 pound gorilla
and we thought, wow.
And that stayed in my head.
And then when we found this image
found [E] this image and what was cool about it
because you can't just put a gorilla on the cover
and it's like, oh, there's a gorilla in the field.
It was more, if you look at this face
I saw extreme
[G#] all these [E] different emotions extreme has.
You get this gorilla that's like a little bit weathered.
We're not youngins anymore, we're seasoned veterans.
But we also are confident in what we do.
Like [G] when we get on stage, we've always [E] believed that we're fierce
and that gorillas are fierce.
But the gorilla, basically when you look at him, has a little smirk.
A lot of our lyrics and a lot of our stuff is playful, like tongue in cheek.
So it had all these like different expressions
where he was powerful, [C] fierce, but like
[E] don't fuck with us, we will take you down.
We have that kind of confidence.
You [E] got something to say?
[A] [G] You talking to me?
[E] We always [F] wrote for ourselves.
We all wrote for ourselves.
We [N] didn't repeat like more than words on purpose
or we just kept writing and whatever it was, it was.
We've always been honest to ourselves.
We took our cues from our heroes.
Zep3 is [Em] almost basically an acoustocrat.
Now of course Queen and The Beatles,
they were selfish or even The Who and Townsend,
they just wrote, they were in their own [B] little bubble.
I think we always believed that like we're a band
and we go on stage and we entertain people.
We make [E] albums to entertain people.
I think we learned really quickly that no,
we take them with us.
Like we're supposed to be, they want [Em] to use us as an escape.
They come to [C] the shows to [Em] escape work,
escape their lives [A] and just be, [F] have a release for [B] that night
or the album is a [C] soundtrack to escape.
[Em] So I think we're not [D] just entertainers,
I think the [E] fans count on us to take them with us
on our journey into our bubble, into our [F#] world.
So I think to be authentic,
[G#m] you have to really be kind of like a [C#] true artist
and like selfish that way.
[F#]
[C#] [B] [F#]
[C#] [F#] You [C#] know, no regret, let [B] your heart go.
[C#] I believe maybe [F#] we could find our faith in love again.
[D#m] [C#]
